It was Gregor Townsend’s side’s lowest-scoring outing since their first game of the 2019 World Cup.
Frustrated Finn Russell hopes a two-week break between matches will allow Scotland to regroup and get Sunday’s demoralising World Cup opener against South Africa out of their system.
Talisman Russell said: “I’m very frustrated with the result but also with the second-half. I don’t think we showed a true reflection of the team that we are. It’s very frustrating.”The Scots do not play again until they face Tonga in Nice on Sunday, 24 September. “We’ve got Tonga then Romania so we need to go into these games as best prepared as we can and looking to play as best we can.“We had a 10-minute period where we let South Africa get two tries so we’ll chat about how we can get better after that second half and coming out firing straight away so that doesn’t happen again.
“The next few days we’ll get away from rugby, refresh ourselves and come back on Thursday and start preparing for Tonga. That’s a massive game for us.“We’ve got everything to play for now and to an extent nothing to lose. As tough as it is to take, in sport you have to bounce back as quick as you can and I think the boys will do that.”
